Specification of Letters Patent.

Patented April 6, 1909.

Application filed April. 22, 1907. Serial No. 369,614.

To (ZZZ whom it may concern:

Be it known t at we, (1) Janus BANG and (2) lnrnn Nine, citizens of the United States of neriea, residing at (1) California, (2) Suterville, in the county of it"ashington and State of Pennsylvania, have invented certain new and useful Improvements in Itlotors, of which the following is a specification, reference being bad therein to the ac- E 1 3 provided with a beveled gear wheel 14,

companying drawing.

This invention relates to motors, and the invention has for its object to provide a simple and inexpensive motor for operating pumps.

Our invention aims to provide a pump particularly designed for use in mines where a draft or blast of air can be utilized for driving a fan, which through the medium of a train of gears operates a pump, either for removing water from a mine or forcing air and water throughout the mine.

With the above, and other objects in view, which will more readily appear as the invention is better understood, the same consists in the novel construction, combination and arrangement of parts to be hereinafter more fully described and then specifically pointed out in the appended claims.

Referring to the drawing forming part of this specification, like numerals of reference designate corresponding parts throughout the several views, in which:

Figure 1 is an elevation of a motor constructed in accordance with our invention, Fig. 2 is a rear elevation of the same, Fig. 3 is an enlarged detail sectional view of a thrust bearing used in connection with a motor, Fig. lis an elevation of a motor illustrating a modified form of construction, Fig. 5 is a plan of the same, showing the cap of bearing 5 removed.

To put our invention into practice, we construct our improved motor of a base plate 1 having reinforced bearings 2 for a driven shaft 3 said shaft upon its one end being provided with a bladed wind wheel or fan 4 having flat twisted blades 25 extending radially from the hub 26. "i he opposite end of said shaft is journaled in a bracket, 5, pro vided with a thrust bearing 6 of a conventional form, said bearing also serving as an additional support for the power shaft.

The bearings 2 are provided with out- \vardly extending brackets 7 in which is journaled a shaft 8, said shaft carrying a large spur wheel 9 adapted to mesh with a i l l l l l 1 l i l l l l l l l l l l 1 ordinary pump.

In Figs. 4 and 5 of the drawings, we have illustrated motor wherein the brackets 7 are dispensed with and the end of the shaft said beveled gear wheel meshing with a gear wheel 15, mounted upon a shaft 16 journaled in the bracket 5 and the bearing 17 located in close proximity to the base plate 3.. The end of the shaft 16 is provided with a spur wheel 18 meshing with a spur wheel 19 mounted upon a shaft 20, said shaft representing the shaft of a rotary pump, dynamo r a piece of machinery used within a mine.

In either the preferred or modified form of construction, the operation is practically the same, the motor being located within a mine where a draft or blast of air can impinge the fan or spiral bladed. wheel 4 and rotate the same and through the rotary movement of said wheel or fan, impart a similar movement to another shaft or a vertically reciprocating movement to a pitman.

It is apparent from the illustration of our invention that we have devised a portable motor that can be used for numerous purposes within a mine, and while we have herein described and illustrated the two forms of transmitting motion from air driven wheel, it is obvious that various mechanical equivalents can be readily employed.

Such changes in the arrangement and minor details of our invention as are permissible by the appended claims, may be resorted to without departing from the spirit and scope of the invention.

What we claim and desire to secure by Letters Patent, is

1. A motor for mines consisting of a base plate, standards, mounted thereon bearings carried by said standards, a power shaft journaled in said bearings, a wheel formed of a plurality of separated spiral blades radially mounted upon a hub carried by one end of said power shaft, a bracket carried by one of said standards and having thrust ball-bearing for said shaft, brackets carried by said standards, a driven shaft journaled in the said brackets, a large spur wheel mounted upon one end of said driven shaft a small spur wheel, said large gear wheel 'being' adapted to mesh therewith, said plate and standards mounted thereon, bear- I ings carried by said standards, apower shaft journaled in said bearings, a wheel formed of a plurality of separated spiral blades radially mounted upon a hub carried by one end of said power shaft, a bracket carried by one of said standards and a thrust ball bearing for said shaft, supporting means and a driven shaft 'ournaled therein a lar e s ur 'wheelinounted uponone end of said driven shaft, a small spur wheel mounted on the above-named thrust bearing and the adjacent standard, said spur wheels adapted to intermesh, and a pitman pivotally connected with said. large spur wheel.

in testimony whereof we affix our signatures in the presence of two witnesses.
